When more than one malfunctions are detected, a maximum of 3 code numbers can be stored;
the latest malfunction will be displayed first.
6. Check ACS-40, "
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Chart" , and repair or replace if necessary.
7. After repair, erase DTC stored in the ICC unit.
8. DTC 55 will be shown.
9. Turn ignition switch OFF to exit the diagnosis.
10. Perform ICC system running test (drive vehicle with ICC system ON), and make sure that ICC warning
lamp does not illuminate.
Self-Diagnostic Erasing Method
1. Stop the vehicle and turn the ignition switch OFF.
2. Turn ignition switch ON and start self-diagnosis.
3. During self-diagnosis mode, press CANCEL switch 5 times, and DISTANCE switch 5 times in this order.
CAUTION:
Press them within 10 seconds after pressing CANCEL switch at first.
When operation is not completed within 10 seconds, start again from above go to 2.
4. DTC 55 will be shown.
CAUTION:
DTC of an existing malfunction will not be erased.
5. Turn ignition switch OFF to exit the diagnosis.
6. Perform ICC system running test (drive vehicle with ICC system ON), and make sure that ICC system
warning lamp (yellow) does not illuminate.
SELF-DIAGNOSIS BY ICC SYSTEM DISPLAY WILL NOT RUN.

TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS — GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Revision: 2004 November 2004 FX35/FX45
1. CHECK ICC SYSTEM DISPLAY
When ignition switch is ON, do all displays illuminate?
YES or NO
YES >> GO TO 2.
NO >> GO TO 5.
2. CHECK ICC STEERING SWITCH
Check ICC steering switch. Refer to ACS-65, "ICC Steering Switch" .
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 3.
NG >> Replace ICC steering switch.
3. CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND ICC STEERING SWITCH
Check harness and spiral cable between ECM and ICC steering switch for open or short circuit.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 4.
NG >> Repair or replace harness or spiral cable between ECM and ICC steering switch.
4. CHECK SELF-DIAGNOSIS
Disconnect connector of ECM, and check terminals for bend and looseness. Securely connect it again.
Enter self-diagnosis mode for ICC system?
YES or NO
YES >> INSPECTION END
NO >> GO TO 5.
5. CHECK POWER SUPPLY FOR ICC UNIT
Check ICC unit power supply, and repair if necessary.
When ignition switch is ON, do all displays illuminate?
YES or NO
YES >> Perform self-diagnosis again.
NO >> GO TO 6.
6. CHECK CONNECTOR FOR ICC UNIT
Disconnect connector of ICC unit, and check terminals for bend and looseness. Securely connect it again.
When ignition switch is ON, do all displays illuminate?
YES or NO

Removal and Installation of Liquid TankAJS0015Y
REMOVAL
1. Use a refrigerant collecting equipment (for HFC-134a) to discharge the refrigerant.
2. Remove front grille. Refer to EI-23, "
FRONT GRILLE" .
3. Clean liquid tank and its surrounding area, and remove dirt and rust from tank.
CAUTION:
Be sure to clean carefully.
4. Remove mounting bolts for liquid tank and power steering oil cooler.
5. Lift liquid tank upwards. Remove bracket from protruding part of
condenser.
6. Slide liquid tank upward, and then remove liquid tank.
INSTALLATION
Install liquid tank, and then install liquid tank bracket on condenser.
CAUTION:
Make sure liquid tank bracket is securely installed at protru-
sion of condenser. (Make sure liquid tank bracket does not
move to a position below center of liquid tank.)
Replace O-rings for A/C piping with new ones, then apply
compressor oil to it when installing it.
When recharging refrigerant, check for leaks.Bolts mounting low-pressure pipe 1 bracket and low-pressure flexible hose bracket
